 The Valleys Of Life

 

These times are to be treasured

For all that God would do

So we will be better equipped

For the valley we must go through

 

For it’s down in the valleys

Where we are surely tested,

Where we need more of God’s grace

As we share the gospel message

 

Where God does a deeper work

Revealing our true selves,

Removing all that’s not of Him,

Like unbelief and doubt

 

So our lamps again can shine

Without the smudges of sin,

To clearly reflect God’s light inside

That once was burning dim

 

So others can see the hope we have

And be drawn unto the light,

So they, too, can come to know

The saving grace of Christ.
